Bad Zwischenahn - Bad Zwischenahn – healing Ammerland mud

In Lower Saxony, in the heart of the Ammerland region, lies the spa resort of Bad Zwischenahn. Situated on the shores of Lake Zwischenahn, the third largest lake in Lower Saxony, the town offers total relaxation and much more besides.

Bad Zwischenahn, a state-approved mud spa since 1964, is renowned as a holiday destination. Thanks to its fantastic lakeside location it is ideally placed to offer not only wellness therapies and active leisure pursuits, but also a range of therapeutic treatments.

The power of peat

Great store is traditionally set by the healing properties of the local mud, and the former rheumatism clinic – which predominantly carried out mud-based treatments – has now become the Lakeside Rehabilitation Centre, specialised in the treatment of orthopaedic illnesses. As a part of this, the centre's highly qualified team now employs a deliberate symbiosis of modern medicine and the healing powers of nature.

Lakeside rehabilitation centre

In addition to medical expertise, the Lakeside Rehabilitation Centre also offers all the benefits of a traditional spa and health resort. The idyllic parks on the shores of Lake Zwischenahn refresh and regenerate both mind and body. Watersports on the lake, cycling and hiking along well-marked routes: at Bad Zwischenahn it's not only about the mud packs.

Wellness by the lake

Visitors to the 'Wellness am Meer' lakeside wellness centre will find that it has everything they need to enjoy some active but also laid-back leisure time. Housing a wave pool with a 36°C outside saltwater pool and a sauna complex with a steam sauna, two Finnish saunas and a log cabin sauna, the centre lets you choose what to focus on.
